The Yes-Men

The Yes-Men were one of the most powerful Australian high energy rock'n'roll bands from the late 90s. Unfortunately they stayed as "the next big thing", due to a drugs overdose in 2001 which took frontman Sean Greenway away. Greenway (GOD, Freeloaders), was the leader and songwriter of this super band, in which members such as Tim Hemmensley (GOD, Bored!, Powder Monkeys) and Stewart "Leadfinger" Cunningham (Proton Energy Pills, Brother Brick, Asteroid B612, Challenger 7) also played. In their second release "El Peligro ha Comenzado" the Yes-Men expose those recordings that never saw the light of day, including amazing covers of songs by the Sex Pistols and Radio Birdman.
